Eliminating Fungus Gnats and Coaxing Peace Lily Blooms

Fungus Gnats: Target larvae in the top soil. Let soil dry deeply, scrape off loose top layer, cover with sand or diatomaceous earth. Use raw potato slices to trap larvae. For severe cases, apply Bti (Knock-Out Gnats). Prevention: use sterile, bark-free, well-draining mix and avoid overwatering.

Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) Blooms: They flower best when pot-bound in bright indirect light (north/east window). Avoid repotting. Feed monthly at half strength. Blooming varies by cultivar; most bloom 1–2 times yearly, never as heavily as greenhouse-forced plants.
